Revelation 12:16 in Context — Revelation 12

14 Y fueron dadas á la mujer dos alas de grande águila, para que de la presencia de la serpiente volase al desierto, á su lugar, donde es mantenida por un tiempo, y tiempos, y la mitad de un tiempo.

15 Y la serpiente echó de su boca tras la mujer agua como un río, á fin de hacer que fuese arrebatada del río.

16 Y la tierra ayudó á la mujer, y la tierra abrió su boca, y sorbió el río que había echado el dragón de su boca.

17 Entonces el dragón fué airado contra la mujer; y se fué á hacer guerra contra los otros de la simiente de ella, los cuales guardan los mandamientos de Dios, y tienen el testimonio de Jesucristo.
